    1. CNN Butterfield What about Russisrussia? And FISA? I have a question. “The Special Counsel found no evidence that any ‼️ American—including anyone associated with the Trump campaign—conspired or coordinated with the Russian government” in its efforts to interfere with the 2016 election, the Attorney General said.
      “ANY…” ‼️ That means? Does this mean that they (Barr c.s.) stop investing the Clintons, the Clappers, the Schiffs, the Strzoks, the Pages, the Comeys, the Brennans (Uranium Deep State crimes)?!🤷‍♂️📣 Most people hope: NO WAY! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸Never never again‼️

  1. Booker is saying he is surprised that Biden would want to compare records. Booker is right because he doesn’t have much of one and what he has is bad.

  2. Corrupted Representative follow the MONEY and his friends who profited big time ! Hurt that he feels is going to be very real about himself. Mayor of emptiness and lies…

    1. Yankee keeps paying people off everything that he platforms off of is, ” we need to give you some money!”Smh… money is not the solution to everyone’s problems and there’s no amount of money to fix problems that are in the home that require more communication money can’t resolve those issues

    2. Merlinz Batgirl at least he’s actually talking about issues rather than tearing other candidates apart. You’d think that they’d at least post SOMETHING with Andrew yang in it, but aw well…

    3. @Merlinz Batgirl robotics and automation are a huge problem on our horizon. To dismiss them so easily is a testament to your naivete.

  3. Corey Booker is Kamala Harris lite……nether of them are qualified to be President and Biden thinks he’s in 3030 and can’t stop stuttering. Tulsi and Yang were the only ones on stage that made sense!

  4. Newark NJ has been very currupt for years and especially the jail system including the youth house very bad.

    1. theresa dirocco …you are correct! I grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia in the sixties and Newark is the same today. He has done nothing! Go home Cory and take your kool aid with you!

  5. According to the National Center for Health Statistics from 1999-2016 the highest number of deaths due to firearms per 100,000 population occurs in Red States.
    In fact, 8 of the top 10 states with the highest rate of deaths are Red States (Republican Government).
    “;-)

    1. thats a lie they count suicides , Democrats always ommit facts about the stats they use ,blue cities lead in gun murders period

    1. She didn’t get enough air time though. For those of us who are unfamiliar with her, we didn’t hear enough from her to help us get to know what she stands for. I was, however, surprised by her comments to/about Harris. I’m not particularly a Harris fan. I think it’s because of her demeanor? Harris reminds me of Hillary Clinton in the way she speaks. Ugh.

    2. Your a super racist Amerikkka white supremacist , we have to vote brown regardless of policy because it will end racism (sarcasm)

    1. I agree! He is kissing her behind because he wants the Vice Pres job if she gets in office. He is so corrupt!!

    2. Zack Taylor What about Russisrussia? And FISA?

  6. TO CNN – POST THE WHOLE DAMN DEBATE SO THAT PEOPLE WHO AREN’T HOME AT ORIGINAL AIR TIME CAN WATCH!

    1. Well Carmen in a nut shell…they continue to fight and trash each other… joe is still fumbling and stumbling, and the others are pretty much worthless lying criminal scum bags.  There I just saved you 2 hours of time.

  7. From the Democrats’ point of view, the less said about the nation’s prosperity and optimism the better.

    1. highjinxwillie62
      You Americans are so easy. We’re going to bury you, and you’re helping us dig the hole! Thank you comrade.

    2. @Ron B so vote Democrat or the Russians take over?, oooh libtard when will you stop playing this stupid game?

    3. highjinxwillie62 What about Russisrussia? And FISA? I have a question. “The Special Counsel found no evidence that any ‼️ American—including anyone associated with the Trump campaign—conspired or coordinated with the Russian government” in its efforts to interfere with the 2016 election, the Attorney General said.

    4. Downright Dutch don’t you get it. They avoided the economy at all cost. And job growth. And unemployment. And the stock market. Read my statement again. You think that was a anti trump statement. My investments have skyrocketed under trump. The democrats are a joke.

  8. Newark IS a Sh*thole. I’m a Jersey girl all my life! This man is full of BS! You all should be aware of this!!!

    1. MPP I live in Newark’s east ward. Not bad like the others but the city itself is appalling. There are no go zones

  9. Booker was mayor of the worst city in NJ, possibly the USA. It was bad when he got there and just as bad when he left.

    1. We’ll all do respect that is not true I grew up born and raised in Newark see that’s the problem and who is what people have to understand this crime everywhere it just that Newark get put out there more because it’s bigger try looking in the tabloids for those small towns in you see the crime that goes on there

  10. What Kool-Aid is Cory Booker drinking good whatever flavor narcotics has some kind of drug in it that line is from like twenty eight years ago! He’s a disgrace to the black community the line is late

  11. Corey….Corey, now we both know your work in Newark, NJ was…..😐 You Sir aren’t in a position to speak on criminal justice and race relations.
